Hi Everybody,

Haven't written in quite a while and just wanted to say, "How ya doin?"

My 90g is doing great. Buying local fish and corals are so inexpensive here bcs it's so close to Indo, Australia, etc.

Still working on exporting those elusive Corals from Borneo (entire West side of the Coral Triangle), but they have a new guy (Co.) in charge now (they've gone through 4 companies trying to make this happen in just 3 yrs) and he lives about 20 mins. from me and has become a good friend. Working on a deal with him, so hoping this will happen. Not giving up on this.

Bye. :wave:
 
Good to here from you Mitch. I hope Ching Chai brought you the shirt from MACNA i sent to you via him.
 
Hi guys. will put up some pics soon.

Eddie, got them thanks. Going up to Bangkok to visit him next month to go around to some of the top shops in BKK.

Hope the Tank Hop was fun.
 
Mitch, great to hear from you and see that you still remember us.

You just took me back a few years down memory lane.

Best of luck

Lulio

Hey Lulio, of course I remember. I always think about you guys.
Dave, the P Tang I put in your care looks amazing! I have his brother here in my Asia Tank.

1st my 90 that I shipped in the container:

Built the crate into a stand since the old stand was trashed in Miami.

When I visit Bangkok later this month, will take some pics and send.

See you all later.
 
Love that pectinia Mitch. Pectinia is now becoming quite popular here. Send me a piece of that one will you please. :)

BTW- are you sure that stand is strong enough?
 
Hi again,

Eddie,
Plating Pectinia only just received CITES approval about 2 years ago. When I visited Vincent in Bali last year, he said it was a fairly rare new coral discovery and he was waiting for it to be listed for exporting. They only come from the seas between East Malaysia to Sulawesi. West Coast of the Coral Triangle. I think Marlin gets a few in now and then. Amazing colors too.

I reinforced the stand with 2x4's and nailed the lid of the crate to the front and made cut outs for doors, so it's very strong. Made sure before I filled the tank 2 yrs. ago.
